The Egyptians considered the phoenix to be the spirit of Ra, the god of the sun. The sun which “dies” in setting each night only to be reborn in rising the next morning. The phoenix is reborn and obtains new life by rising from the ashes.

I have been experimenting with digital art by layering photos and different textures. This one ended up making a passageway to the unknown. The swirls seem to draw her into the light.
Digital art is fun because it allows me to combine my photography and my imagination. Combining different photos or elements into a new piece of art taps the creative juices.
